Wooohooo! Things went better than expected with John's surgery and he didn't need the trach so we got home late yesterday afternoon. He is in pain, has hole where jaw bone used to be and is weak because he had little nutrition for a few days but we are home and on the road to recovery and waiting for culture results.
Thank you all for the prayers, positive vibes, well wishes.
I did mention I was taking along some yarn to crochet some hats for kids on the Rosebud reservation. I did finish 3 of them while in the hospital.
I also finished a book - 7 Days by Mike Kraus, a post-apocalyptic/survival thriller.
So delighted at the news of a positive surgery outcome - you clearly had some nervous energy to dissipate, lots of hats!

Praising God for the trach-free, and successful surgery; and skillful knitting to occupy you. Praying for God's grace, strength, encouragement, as you walk moment by moment through John's healing.
